I only remember her from 'Save the Last Dance." I think that was her...

I think the older Juila gets, the prettier she is

Love her too!

Can't wait for The Bell Jar! Vanessa Carlton?? What was that one song she had again...

I hope she plays crazy better in this movie than she did in the Ethan Hawke version of Hamlet. She literally crossed her eyes while playing Ophelia! It's a scene that I have watched dozens of times for its unintentional comedic quality.

There is something I like about her that I like off screen, but since 10 Things I Hate About You, I don't find her appealing on-screen at all. I try to like her! But there was "Down to You" with Freddie Prinze Jr. ("cake is my world!"), Mona Lisa Smile (where she had the worst put-on accent ever) and the before mentioned Hamlet. I also think her part in the Borne Series is really stiff. But that's just my opinion. Good for her for getting into directing.

I love Julia! It seems like we haven't seen her in forever! She needs to be added to the "Celebrity Directory" for the Pop Sugar 100 List!

I love The Bell Jar!! I'm so excited it's going to be made into a film

Where on earth has she been?

I am not a fan of her acting talent, but she seems really sweet and incredibly intellegent. I think she could be a really great director!

(That is funny about her crossing her eyes as Opheilia...I can only imagine how out of place that is!)

I love her, 10 Things is one of my favorite teenybopper guilty pleasures! "Remove head from sphincter, then drive!" LOL

I can't really see her as Esther Greenwood, but only time will tell whether this is a good move or not.

she looks like a gremlin!!!

Ugh. I find her so irritating.

She is a terrible actress. I think she gets more credit than she deserves because she has a deep voice. Have you noticed raspy-voiced actresses tend to get more respect and be taken seriously? (Think Leelee Sobieski, Scarlett Johansson, etc.)

I think she's a hit or miss actress. She was terrific in this film she did with Stockard Channing, where she played this crazy character. But she was terrible in that Freddie Prinze Jr. movie and in that movie where she marries a prince.

She does get prettier as she gets older.

Torgleson -- that is a really astute observation. I totally agree.

I have never really thought much of her acting or looks.

love her.

...Cake is My World!

Worst line in a film, EVER!

don't like her.

i think she's totally miscast in the Bourne films. She's the only thing I hate about the Bourne movies.

whatever happened to vanessa carlton???

ohh how i love 10 things i hate about you. haha of course it's not a great movie, but it's a good teen flick and i LOVE how heath ledger sings "you're just too good to be true" to her aahhh

vanessa was actually using julia's massive and shiny forehead as a mirror when that pic was taken. anyhoo, i love julia and i hope that this movie gives her the acting credit she deserves.

Indentured servant a slave to slave, thank god for my hopeful heart and for mutual feelings

VERY TALENTED YOUNG LADY!
My respect.

She starred in O, right?

She's a terrible actress, stiff and dull And she wants to mess with Sylvia's stuff? Please, no...

I'm so excited they're adapting The Bell Jar to the big screen!

Its kind of funny because in 10 things i hate about you, there is a scene where she is reading the bell jar. Yes, I know a ton of pointless info!

I like Julia, good for her!

luv her
